The organizers of ISEA2011 are inviting the 
Turkish and the international academic community 
to participate in the ISEA Education Workshop and 
the LEAF Workshop. The ISEA2011 Education 
Workshop on the theme of "brain drain/brain gain 
in art, science and technology." will provide the 
opportunity for engagement between local and 
international academics, foster personal links 
and research synergies, as well as provide the 
chance for young academics to gain contacts in 
these fields.

In the ISEA2011 Education Workshop the 
identification and discussion of specific key 
educational issues initiates the open exchange 
between educational experts and workshop 
participants. As the changes in economic and 
cultural landscapes are transforming consolidated 
realities - artists, scientists and academics 
that work at the intersection of art, science and 
technology around the world are adopting new 
strategies and models of production.

Who is gaining from these transformations and who 
is losing from them? Can Turkey be listed amongst 
the contemporary winners of these developments?

Between other issues affecting contemporary 
education we will focus on issues of 
interdisciplinarity and courses available in 
Turkey and internationally at the intersection of 
art, science and technology exploring their 
innovative methodologies.  ISEA looks at the 
Education Workshops as an opportunity for 
established and young academics to develop new 
contacts and to foster new synergies both 
nationally and internationally.
